of another dipped dollar, radish infestations, and unused potential other than for urine and cigarette butts…

I’m trying to secure wine for later as the distribution cartel employs economic downturn trickle-in policies. So as the dollar bounces against the Euro, so goeth the price of imports, almost on a month to month basis. This makes it difficult to honor price and availability quotes that are to be secured months in advance of the event. Yet, client expectations are high. Like any good economic catastrophe worthy of its place in history, there should be a black market style underground forming for the sake of a grandiose circumvent if nothing else. Naturally, as any responsible Liquor Agent should suspect, speculation is not necessarily a reason for intent. Luv and kisses from the gang at LS.

Walking out to inspect the garden this morning, it has become evident that the radishes have applied total dominance of all they observe, threatening to impede the blackberry vine advance and possibly extracting more than their fair share of nutrients from the soils cohabited by now lesser vegetative forms. They are sweet along with their bite. I could eat them all if my stomach had the stomach for it.

The following are pictures of the alley facing North immediately off of Pine Court. The potential for an Istanbul micro market corridor with banners and awnings is unreal. A quick chat with Empire Bruce confirmed there are more eyeballing the wasted space than me. Beer gardens? Take out windows? Street Vendors? People rubbing up against people in the narrowest of corridor and not being aggravated about uncomfortable impediments and obstructions and obstacle? Artist rendition of a plausible future not likely…

Desperately in search of cobblestone and rolls of canvas (preferably multi-colored)

In need of mural and textile artists and people generally not
concerned about dangling amidst questionable high voltage configurations.

The rest will be up to the entrepenural spirit in all of us…
and of course the usual tenacious unmitigated gall
required to weave through or change all the legal, code, insurance,
and other malarky that impedes such notions…
